Stressed Steph struggles to eat & sleep

Following a bitter split from Jeremy Mcconnell, Steph Davis sparks concern over her “painfully thin” frame

She’s had a traumatic S few months, facing ex-boyfriend Jeremy Mcconnell in court where he was found guilty of assaulting her, suffering a miscarriag­e, then seeing him go public with a new love interest, make-up pro Mandi Flood.

And Steph Davis – who has eight-month-old son Caben-albi with Jeremy – was branded “painfully thin” by her fans last week when she shared a picture of herself – with many worrying the stress had taken its toll on her body.

A source says: “When she’s stressed, Steph loses her appetite. She’s upset over Jeremy and busy with Caben, so hasn’t had time to look after herself. She’s been feeling really low and is hardly sleeping.”

Fans were also quick to notice her visibly fuller lips in a lingerie snap she posted last week, saying she was “morphing into every other Barbie reality star.”

Steph, 24 – who last week prompted rumours of a romance with TOWIE star Ricky Rayment after flirty exchanges on Twitter – ended her rocky relationsh­ip with Jeremy, 27, in June, and he’s now deleted all signs of her from his social media. He landed himself in hot water last week when he was found guilty of drunkenly breaking into a woman’s home this year.

The source says: “Steph has been posting lots of sexy selfies in the hope it’ll get a reaction from him. She’s vowed they’re over for good, but still wants to know she’s on his mind.”
